Socket closed by client

Hi,

Can someone say what is the meaning of the meesage "Socket closed by client" seen on exit reason column in Sessions_SERVERNAME_2011-01.log log file. Is it the document was not accessible by the user (Identifying user) at the time given in Document Timestamp column.

Please advise.

Regards,

Jay

This is typically an indication that the user closed their browser.

It is harmless.

Why doesn't it have a user name included?

The Server Reference Manual states that there are a number of reason for session termination:

   “Socket closed” = Client-induced termination

   “LRU” = Terminated as Least Recently Used in favor of new user

   “Shutdown” = Server-induced termination for other reasons

But that this is not a complete list, as the exit value in some cases comes from the operating system.

Other common Exit Reasons are:

Session expired after idle timeSession Idle Time exceeded the parameters set for the Document / Server
Killed because Named User Cal was needed from another clientWhere the User is using two different machines / browsers to view the same document this "kills the session" to use for the other machine.
